England's Manchester United is actively continuing its search for a new defensive midfielder this summer transfer window.
The Operative Information Center-OMM reports that the club management has identified Aurelien Tchouameni as the primary target to serve as a long-term replacement for Casemiro.
The realization of this transfer may depend on whether the Spanish club Real Madrid can find a suitable replacement for him. Potential candidates reportedly within the Madrid side's sphere of interest include Rodri and Enzo Fernandez.
The French international's contract with Real Madrid remains in effect until the summer of 2028. Tchouameni, who joined the Spanish giants from AS Monaco in 2022, has established himself as a versatile component of the team's midfield. Manchester United's pursuit comes as part of a broader strategy to revitalize their squad depth and transition toward younger talent in key positions. According to the Transfermarkt portal, Tchouameni's current market value is estimated at 75 million euros.
